Halloween Classics [Shout Factory]

by Halloween Classics / Various

Overview

There's nothing too startling on this brief, ten-song set of Halloween-themed tracks, and aside from the theme to John Carpenter's Halloween, which is always pretty creepy to hear, there isn't anything particularly frightening, either. Edgar Winter's "Frankenstein" is here, along with Blue Oeyster Cult's "(Don't Fear) The Reaper" and, of course, Bobby Pickett's "Monster Mash," which pops up everywhere when Halloween season rolls around. ~ Steve Leggett
